Rowling. The composition of the text is viewed as linguistic and cognitive construal that integrates compositional plot structure, compositional meaning structure, linguistic and stylistic means of their actualization in the text. The content of the text is organized as a specific configuration of compositional plot blocks reflecting similar topics of textual situations. The coherence and cohesion of compositional plot blocks are provided by the compositional devices which perform text building and text forming functions. Compositional meaning structure is revealed via reconstruction of the conceptual metaphoric and metonymic schemas embodied in compositional plot blocks. The key meaning is represented by the megametaphor LIFE IS THE CHOICE OF A PATH, which in the text unfolds into a number of conceptual metaphors and metonymies. The peculiarities of representation of compositional plot structure and compositional meaning structure are explained through the analysis of corresponding linguistic and stylistic means and types of narration.  \nKeywords: Composition, Linguo-cognitive construal, Compositional plot structure, Compositional meaning structure, Compositional plot blocks, Conceptual megametaphor  \n1. Introduction  \nIn this article linguistic and cognitive peculiarities of composition of the English modern author's tales exemplified in J.K. Rowling's books are analysed. Linguistic and cognitive approach to the present research gives way to elicit the nature of the relations between the content, meaning of the text of the tales and its verbal realization.  \nLinguistic and cognitive research of the composition of the artistic text originated in the depth of historical, structural and semantic poetics long before the scientific legalization of cognitive linguistics as a paradigm of knowledge. However, the study of composition within the linguistic and cognitive aspect proposes to use not only achievements of the previous scientific paradigm but also the development of a new one, in particular, the division of the composition into outer and inner one.  \nWithin the linguistic and cognitive approach to the study of composition the focus of attention is shifted to the revealing and analysis of the cognitive mechanisms of structuring the knowledge of the world, the impulse for the activation of which is the number of the linguistic forms, conceptualized on the verbal layer of the composition of the text (Rastorgueva, 2005) .  \nProgressive enough for its time the understanding of the composition of the artistic text as the construal of conscience belongs to Propp: “The composition does not really exist so as there are no general notions in the material world: they exist only in the conscience of a man. But it is general notions that help us to perceive the world, reveal its laws and learn to govern them”(Propp, 1969) . Compare: “The ground of the compositional plot structure of the text is the mental model since it represents its reference (Tomashevsky, 1959) .  \nThe background to the linguistic and cognitive approach to the composition is traced in the works of Lotman, who proposed that between live situations and “lyrical situations” there is a coding system, which explains the way the phenomena of the world of reality are reflected in th","cbCaicWviIDlFKi8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicWviIDlFKi8","pdf",446709,"English","# Introduction\n## Linguistic and cognitive approach to text composition\n## Historical and theoretical background (poetics and cognitive linguistics)\n## Text composition as knowledge structuring and conceptual space","[{\"question\":\"What is the main focus of the article?\",\"answer\":\"The article focuses on linguistic and cognitive characteristics inherent in the composition of J.K.
